"Olson portrays the figure as brooding, thoughtful and ruminating. He’ll stand in the semi dark, having a sip from his pocket flask and forming his thoughts as he nurses a cigarette. It is like viewing a fire that is fuming rather than burning. Yet the slightest breeze causes the coals to glow and sparks to fly. Hamlet looks dark, but the flames are volatile, apt to flare up at any moment, at the slightest provocation" - Dave Davison (Tacoma Weekly)
